Memories from South Africa: The Braai

Another important feature of any South African culinary experience is the braai. To braai is to barbecue, and it is a South African staple. Common meats: lamb chops, chicken, and boerwors, or "farmer's sausage," that is often sold in coiled lengths. It is unique to the country and, although I don't much enjoy sausage-type meats, such as hot dogs, frankfurters or bratwurst, I do miss boerwors desperately.
